Yes, he never faced repercussions even though not only he was the mastermind of the whole thing, and he did it before with Boney M. He continued to make hits with groups he developped, most famously La Bouche.

Thanks for shedding more light. The hypocrisy and cover-ups were everywhere in the industry and yet Milli Vanilli took the heat because they were so successful.

This is absolutely not true!! The rehab was financed by Frank Farian as well as the health-recovery-trip to Sri Lanka he supposed to start. However, he died because of Alcohol and drug intoxication from the night before departure, blowing 2.000 Euros pocket money he was given for his planned stay. He was discovered dead by a employee of Frank Farian, after they couldn’t reach him over the phone before his departure. There is evidence for this in a number of interviews and research done by well regarded media. At RTL (a large TV broadcaster in Germany/ Europe) , journalists confirmed, that the contracts Rob and Fab had with Milli Vanilli were extremely fair having them earned several millions just for jumping around and lip-syncing. Tell me, who else did get that at this time? Where is your evidence for Fab saying that rehab has been paid by him?

Actually no, they were better then the actual singers but it was a too little, too late situation. They lost the public’s trust at that point. Arsenio Hall actually gave them a chance when they brought out new material with THEIR ACTUAL VOICES and I remember that telecast and they sounded great. We all felt bad for them because you had the scandal which the media was all about money back then as they are today but their was no social media back then, so everyone was about selling magazines and and television shows like entertainment tonight among said others who tore them a new hole. It really wasn’t the fans, it was people who played along for media sake burning records to make it look like it was a big deal. Meanwhile we had people like Joey Lawrence from the show “Blossom” singing songs like “There’s nothing my love can’t fix for you baby” which I luv the song, he was a one hit wonder. I knew people who was NOT gonna burn milli vanilli records and was still playing blame it on the rain and the other songs by them. It’s was really sad all around

[@Gen_X_Rosey]

I did a video on performance models. Basically, people like Rob and Fab who perform in videos for the real artists behind certain songs and Rob and Fab were the first ones I talked about. Models like that were very common in the 80s. Look at Technotronic's first video "Pump Up the Jam" and Black Box's "Strike It Up" (Just as you mentioned). And, of course, C+C Music Factory. For some reason, though, Rob and Fab got villanized for something that was still goin' on even after they returned their Grammy! To be honest, I'd still bump their album if I could find it now. And I'd only buy it if Rob and Fab were on the cover. Not even kidding. Great video! R.I.P. Rob. You were a gorgeous man who deserved better than what you got.

Remember the song That's What Little Girls Are Made of by Raven-Symone and Missy Elliott performed a rap on the song and was replaced for the video and it made Missy Elliott very angry

[@Whitechapelchap]

I remember that

[@portraitofalady1598]

I loved that song when I was a kid.

[@shanb.9690]

Wowwwww that’s messed up how they did those men AND TO ADD INSULT TO INJURY THEY WERE SUED BLACKBALLED AND PRETTY MUCH BULLIED FOR SOMETHING THAT THEY REALLY DIDNT HAVE THE POWER TO CONTROL THIS WORLD 🌎 IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO COLD 🥶 😞😞😞🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@pamelagordon8072]

Rest in Heavenly peace Rob🙏

[@MissRooti]

Oh my gosh! Thank You for doing this video! I still play Milli Vanilli to this day! I still have their old albums! It seems like just yesterday they were on TV & we were in the basement jumping up and down mimicking the moves to "Girl You Know It's True back in the 80z! Rest Up Rob! #music lives FOREVER

[@derekwalton1064]

Love your channel 💗 keep the videos coming.

[@shantereed]

I was a big Milli Vanilli fan. I remember when they first came out. And it was heartbreaking when they were exposed. The thing is now I don’t think it would’ve been such an issue if they happen today instead of back then

[@nickronin9618]

amazing work man i remember listen to their music everywhere as a kid .

[@emmiesblessed8800]

It would be A good story to tell about Frank! I never new that about him

[@loirinlancaster3]

The sick sad twisted part about this (because I grew up in that era) I remember this soooo well, after the scandal they debuted the album they had initially intended with their actual voices and they were 10x better then the voices they were dubbing for which was crazy. Oddly enough I do believe that if they went out and sung the songs “Blame it on the rain’’ “Girl you know it’s true” with their actual voices at the time they had to promote those songs other then masquerading, then they would have been accepted. I really do believe that, the audience would have been like damn y’all sound better then the actual record and they would have been the exception to the rule at that point.

[@daryltracy7949]

They did! They sang those two songs occasionally along with their own music when they would perform at local avenues. They couldn't book professional concerts sadly because people were still not over the scandal. I would love to see footage of that. I've only seen pictures of them performing post 1990.

[@loirinlancaster3]

@@daryltracy7949 what was needed wasn’t done, before the scandal hit they could have pulled the bull by it’s horns and said Fu*k it we’re not gonna lip sync to the track but we’ll use our actual voices instead and they didn’t. When the footage of them lip syncing came out, it wasn’t the first time fans caught them, this time it was recorded. That record skipped more times then they’d care to admit, and they were already informed that the actual singers were about to head to the press which gave them time to get ahead of it because touring was everything back in the day, fans took it way…….. more seriously then they do now because it was a different generation. So sadly as a matter of course they are as much to blame. Only person on tour was them, it’s not like the record label or mangers were there at every turn, maybe the promotional tour YES but when the ongoing tour before the scandal, they had time to devise a plan. This is why management is everything, it’s a make or break. And as an artist I’ll just say it’s important to be kind to everyone from back up singers, dancers, DJ’s band members and everyone that’s part of your crew when your on tour because when you are everyone has got your back and apparently someone didn’t have theirs.

[@mzkj1972]

I love your show

[@alphaomega8373]

Bro you gotta do one for the Crystals!

[@sherronbell4961]

I like Milli vanilli, especially the song, baby don't forget my number and the video too

[@jd737]

I wish Rob was still here. He said that he felt he was just going to known as a fake and a loser as long as he was on earth. When I saw that I knew he wouldn’t make it 😢

[@muotinzmultiply88]

Rob died at 33??? We all know how this number is so special...33

[@NickWsGuitarCandy]

It was an Illuminati sacrifice for sure.

[@NickWsGuitarCandy]

33 is the calling card of the Freemasons

[@larhondaburchett3271]

What’s up CU Fam? I hope everyone is doing well! Another great episode as usual. I always click like before I watch the video. Bc I already know it’s going to be another good one! I’ve seen quite a few stories about Milli Vanilli. But this one is the best!! Keep ‘em coming! Peace and blessings to y’all! And thanks for another great video! 🖤💪🏾💙 May you continue to Rest In Peace & Power Rob!

[@michaelbailey427]

Just watched the Paramount version of 'Milli Vanilli - Documentary' and its almost exact to your version here. They copy you?? i did shed a tear then Rob died, the poor soul.. i hope he is at peace

[@YourMusic-JoshuaWilliams]

The women in Boney M could sing but the lead singer had to lip sync. On Boney M’s last album, Frank finally let him sing but issues caused the lead singer to be fired from the group. Also, Frank took the rights to the group name and made money off of the name. The lead singer accidentally signed over the group name because he wasn’t good at reading. Later, he found out Frank only had rights to the name in certain countries and used that to his advantage to get the money he deserved.

[@happygolucky7241]

Thanks for the video on Rob. Till this day it still a messed up & sad story growing up when I seen Behind the Music on Milli Vanilli. Could you do videos on Deon Estus and Jaibi?

[@Regreviews]

Cryptkeeper Clive returns

[@SensualSounds]

Thank you for sharing their story with us. I’ve always felt bad for them and what happened to Rob. Fan/people can be so cruel it was never that serious to sue them. This Frank person although helped towards the end actually caused all of this. He had an axe to grind and would not let up off of them. I really wished Rob had not committed suicide it would’ve gotten better down the road….🙏🏾🕊🕯

[@roshaimoore]

Sad situation what happened to Milli Vanilli... I'm glad that Fab was able to redeem himself and show the world his actual voice and he have a beautiful voice.
